Chapter 391: Chapter 207: Haven’t Seen Me in Two Months, Missed Me? _3

He’s so idle, hanging around with nothing to do every day, how is he anything like someone who belongs to a company?

She looked back and scanned her surroundings, then thought better of it—she couldn’t wait here forever. She left with a sense of loss in her heart.

Two months later, at the Anchester Metropolis Press Conference Hall.

Jane Quinlan sat at the very end of the conference table, half-listening to the manager drone on with the same old meeting agenda.

She glanced at her watch, fifteen minutes until the end of the workday.

It looked like she’d have to work overtime again today.

"Okay, I’ve covered the main points, now let’s talk about something even more important."

The room, previously listless, suddenly turned their attention towards the manager’s face.

"You must all be aware that our newspaper’s performance has noticeably declined over the past few months.

If this continues, shutting down won’t be far off.

In order to ensure the sustained and long-term development of our newspaper.

After several decisions among the higher-ups...MetroTimes has been acquired by Skyward Group and will be directly managed by them."

This significant news sent the entire conference room into an uproar.

Everyone was clear that an acquisition also means reforms.

In the future, the newspaper would lose its original identity, and it’s uncertain what will happen next.

Jane Quinlan too sighed heavily. Daisy Zenith, sitting to her left, nudged her and whispered, "It’s too late, what are we going to do now?"

She pressed her lips together in silence, but her heart was also filled with worries.

After being acquired, there might be layoffs.

The company hadn’t hired any new staff recently, and her role as a training instructor wasn’t essential.

Doesn’t that mean her career prospects are worrying?

Daisy Zenith was an editorial assistant, so she must be worried now as well.

After the manager finished speaking, he slapped the desk, "Okay, I know it’s somewhat hard for everyone to accept.

But there’s no help for it; this is reality. I hope that all colleagues can prepare themselves mentally.

From now on... the company won’t be under my control anymore."

Although they didn’t work overtime after the meeting, everyone was downcast.

A few even huddled together to discuss their future prospects.

Some talked about changing jobs, while others worried about finding new work.

Daisy Zenith came over to Jane’s desk with a cup of tea: "What are we going to do from now on? I always feel like I’m the freeloader of the company."

"Aren’t I one?" she said with an ironic smile.

After all, as a trainer, I need employees to conduct training.

She turned to look at the empty desks in the corner, her eyes filled with a sense of loss.

Daisy Zenith patted her on the shoulder: "Oh, come on, Xavier has been gone for so long, and you’re still looking over there.

By the time he returns, he might straight up be laid off, his position is also redundant."

Jane Quinlan pursed her lips: "Who cares about him."

She exhaled and stood up: "It’s time to get off work, I’ll head back first."

She started packing her bag, while Daisy Zenith muttered: "Hey, at such a critical moment, you still have the mood to go home.

Stay and figure out the future with everyone."

She whispered to Daisy Zenith: "Those who really want to change jobs won’t talk about it here, they search for new positions quietly, and once they find a suitable one, they’ll leave.

The ones shouting about quitting are those who want to but don’t dare to.

They only do this to agitate others."

Daisy Zenith listened: "Makes sense, forget it, let’s go off work. Let’s leave together."

The two left the newspaper office together, with Daisy Zenith chattering all the way, but Jane’s thoughts were elsewhere.

At the bus stop, Daisy Zenith asked her: "Do you have any thoughts about changing jobs? Be honest."

"No," she shook her head.

"Ah? Aren’t you worried?"

"I am worried, but the company has just announced the merger, whether this is a good or bad thing for us is still uncertain, why rush to make a move?

We are being acquired by Skyward Group, not by some trash shredding facility.

As future employees of Skyward Group, I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing.

You know, some people would do anything to get into Skyward Group."

She finished with a sly smile.

Daisy Zenith instantly gave her a thumbs up: "You’re awesome, you’ve convinced me."

Jane Quinlan laughed, satisfied she had persuaded her.

"Your bus is here."

"Ah, I’m off then, see you tomorrow." Daisy Zenith patted her shoulder, jumped onto the bus, and left.

It was the peak of rush hour now; every bus was crowded.

A Chery QQ zoomed past her.
